Art and more by Meera

Here is a visual treat… rather retreat of art work… It will transport you to another world!! Can you tell that a true artist lives here. You’ve got to see Meera’s work!! Without formal training in art… her work is magical, aesthetic, exquisite and mystical.. She will surely leave you spell bound!!
She blogs at Art by Meera… and this post is an attempt to show you her gorgeous artwork and how she displays her work at home – pairing it with artefacts from other artists, things she collected during travels and stuff that she made. The rangolis are either painted or embroidered over the years.

My blog ‘Artbymeera’ is an
indulgence - a place to share my adventures in painting, photography and
reflections on life. It is also where I share my inspirations, my
love of reading, science and nature. I came to drawing and painting as an adult
and have been dabbling in it for about fifteen years now – even though I feel I
just started *smiles* I don’t have formal art training but have benefited from a
few classes here and there or workshops now and then by other artists.

I am thankful for the abundance of DVDs, books, and of course, the internet that
allows me to explore art the world over and expand my knowledge and
understanding of art and form friendships with other artists. I use water
media, colour pencils or graphite and find myself using them all
in the same piece. I paint whatever captures my imagination and try both
realistic and abstract styles to convey my impressions.

I love colours and often experiment with textures. My family members
are my personal art critics, unconditional supporters and cheer leaders and of
course great art patrons too *huge smile*

Over the years I have won a couple of modest awards, juried into a few local,
national and even one international show. I look forward to see where my art
adventures take me :)

I wont talk any more.. and will let the photographs talk for themselves..

Would you like to showcase your artwork, home or any other talent on Colours Dekor?? Read ‘Showcase’… coz I’d love to feature you and your work… specially if you are an upcoming talent. Write to me on torresp27@hotmail.com and I’d love to provide you with Colours Dekor. *smiles*

LOVE that purple rug! It's beautiful! Thanks for your kind comments on my blog :) Life is a journey, and I will figure my journey with my blog out soon. Until I do, I will keep posting my creations. They are what help keep me sane :)
